That's how the (evil, fake) tabloids have put it. Kate was also pretty displeased. That doesn't explain Meghan's behavior, flying back to Canada solo and being on the verge of a mental breakdown. |
Taxes work differently for those with diplomatic status. I know from experience. Meghan and Harry would be paying both UK and US taxes if they were in London or if they were in Vancouver or if they were in LA. |
This is true. Murdoch dominates Australian news as well, including making it impossible to deal with climate change or empower the national government to fight bushfires. Those millions of burning acres are being tackled by almost exclusively volunteer, state (not federal) firefighters. It's absolutely insane. The oil and gas industries have a stranglehold on Australian politics thanks to Murdoch's news orgs. |
Winston Churchill's mother was American. So was Princess Diana's great grandmother, whose American-made wealth saved the indebted Spencer estate. |
For the record, some of us vocal and prolific MM defenders are middle-aged white women. I'm pretty sure the vitriolic MM haters are almost exclusively white, though. |
But that is surely dependent on exactly how much of a royal he will remain, doesn't it? If he takes a full-on royal role stationed abroad, he is still subject to all the rules and restrictions that a senior royal deals with. He certainly can't make his own money or monetize the connection. He can't take commercial ventures on. He can't brand or sell anything. He is still on the job. I don't see how this is "financial independence" - you are basically a foreign service officer. |
FSOs can have private businesses FYI. But you keep saying 'He can't' when his grandmother is the freaking Queen of Great Britain. Whatever she says he can do, he can. We'll see what they announce but I expect it'll all be out by Wednesday or so. |
She didn't have any family to defy. |
I don't think that's accurate at all. In that last year or so, Diana was really coming into her own, and it was exciting to see. Public opinion was pretty polarized in favor of Diana and against Charles (and Camilla) at that point. |
Well his grandmother has shown that she has a set of opinions on how the freaking royal family ought to behave itself, and I don't think selling lipstick is a part of it. |
The fling with Dody didn't really do much for her. |
Call me when Meghan starts selling lipstick for personal profit. Here's a hint though - she's already into fashion collections as a royal. They all survived.
In fact, so is the Prince of Wales and all the profits are going straight to his foundation. Again...everyone lived.

You're a paranoid bigot. |
So Karen is just a pathetic troll after all |
+1. She has shown she is an evil snake. She's gorgeous, smart as a freaking tack, manipulative and evil. Her mixed heritage is the least of it. What? We aren't allowed to call it like it is just because she's half black? Give me a break! She is far more privileged than you and I will EVER be. She is a nasty narc and I almost want to do a slow clap. I am impressed she might pull off her plan perfectly. This is more entertaining than any movie. Seriously, you have to admire her chutzpah. Agree with the Bezos poster, he is due for an upgrade! She's going to rule the world. She's a modern day Helen of Troy! And she is totally up for criticism..that's the life of a public figure...a life she chose and dreamed and schemed for long before Harry. |
